Our brave service members who have sacrificed on our behalf have earned our respect and deserve to be honored, but let’s not forget the servicemen and women still risking their lives overseas or living among us at home.

Unfortunately, thousands of veterans return home facing the possibility of serious mental and physical health issues, and even homelessness. This puts them in need of basic services, such as medical, educational & housing assistance.

If you or someone you know is a vet in need of assistance, please call my district office at 925-319-2011 and let us help.

LAW OFFICE OF JOAN GRIMES

California’s New Right to Die Act and Incapacity On January 1, 2016, California’s Death with Dignity Act will become effective. It is estimated that the Act will provide an option for 1 in 10 people to die with dignity in California.

Why only 1 in 10 people? The reason that this Act is expected to affect such a small percentage of California citizens is that the requirements under the Act are very strict. To qualify under the Act, the patient must 1) have the mental capacity and 2) be suffering from a terminal illness—a disease that will, within reasonable medical judgment, produce death in six months. Additionally, the patient must make 3 requests to a physician: two oral and one written plus at least 15 days must separate the two oral requests.

So what is going to happen to the rest of us? For me personally, I am hoping to die peacefully in my sleep after dinner and dessert which will include lots of

ASSEMBLYMEMBER JIM FRAIZER

Improving Quality of Life for Our Veterans As a proud member of the Assembly Veterans Affairs Committee, it’s my honor to champion legislation benefitting the brave individuals who have selflessly served and sacrificed much to protect our freedoms and defend our country. Veterans Day is this month, and I thought you might be interested to know about some of the work we are doing in Sacramento to improve the quality of life for our veterans.

Last month, the governor signed Senate Bill 221 by state Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson (D-Santa Barbara), which allows state employees who are veterans with service-connected disabilities to receive an additional 96 hours of paid sick leave dedicated to their health care treatment.

Many California veterans are returning from Iraq and Afghanistan with physical

ice cream. However, I realize that my hope for a peaceful death may not be in the cards for me, as I know, and will unfortunately be the case for many others.

Sadly, the journey towards death can be long and arduous.

4. Do you want a care manager to visit regularly to evaluate the level of care that you receiving? Do you want a private care giver in order to ensure that you have someone to take you to doctor appointments and other outings?

That is the reason why incapacity provisions in your Trust are so important.

If a Trust is properly drafted, it will give your successor Trustee specific instructions as what should be done in the event you are unable to care for yourself or make decisions for yourself. Among other things, the Trust should be clear on the following:

If you have a Trust, you should review its terms regarding incapacity. If the Trust provisions are not what you want, you should consider amending the documents to correctly reflect your wishes and desires. There is no question that the Death with Dignity Act is going to helpful for a few. However, most of us are going to have some period of incapacity prior to death. We may not be able to control our physical or mental health, but we can control how our assets are used to care for us even during periods of incapacity.

1. How will incapacity be determined? Is it going to be determined by your personal physician or an attending physician at the hospital? Do you want there to be a second opinion?

2. How do you want your assets used during any period of incapacity? Do you want to stay in your home and have in-home care? Is there anyone else that you may need to provide for during your incapacity like a spouse or adult child?

3. If you are not able to stay in your home, where do you want to be? Near a specific child? In a large assisted living home with lots of activities or a smaller home like setting? and mental health issues that require medical attention. VA appointments can be hard to get, and even more difficult to reschedule. For our disabled veterans, this bill will mean an easier transition from military service to the workplace without having to choose between the two.

I’ve been eagerly waiting for a bill I authored last year to take effect, and that day is almost here! After Nov. 11, Californians who served in the military will have an easier time verifying their status as a veteran. Assembly Bill 935 will allow the Department of Motor Vehicles to apply a “veteran” designation to the driver’s license or identification card of verified military service members in California.

Until now, the only way California veterans could verify their status was to carry around documents given to them when they were discharged. With an official designation on a driver’s license or state ID card, veterans will be able to readily access such benefits as employment or housing assistance, health and counseling, educational opportunities and more.

I wasn’t able to serve in the military because of a high school sports injury, yet I’ve always tried to show my gratitude

Serving on the Assembly Veterans Affairs Committee and being able to carry legislation to make their lives better is a privilege, and something I hope to do for a long time.

Our brave service members have earned our respect and deserve to be honored, but let’s not forget the service men and women still risking their lives overseas or living among us at home.
